WINGNUT LABELS BILL CLINTON AS "WORST PERSON TO BE PRESIDENT"

This morning Ernie Brown, a commentator on Dallas KRLD news and talk radio, said on "Sixty Seconds with Ernie Brown" that because "Bill Clinton, through his lawyers," demanded that The Path to 9/11 be edited to remove or amend scenes that were factually fraudulent, or else withdrawn from the ABC-TV schedule, he was guilty of suppression of freedom of speech, or "censorship" as Ernie called it. All of this, Ernie stated, makes Bill Clinton "not the worse president in history but the worst person to be president."

Well folks, that's where our fair and balanced right-wingers have brought us. An insistence on historical accuracy is now to be interpreted as "censorship" and suppression of freedom of speech. Bill Clinton had no power, with or without his lawyers, to effect a change in ABC's decision-making and in fact, the network did not delete segments that are demonstrably false, episodes that were simply invented, that never happened. But because The Big Dog protested, he's a terrible person.

I just love it when wingnuts have tantrums about Democrats who "hate Bush more than the terrorists." They hated Clinton from day one, and with much, much less reason. Talk about unhinged.
